Tripoli (IINA) – UN Special Envoy for Libya Martin Kobler on Wednesday welcomed the arrival in Tripoli of Libyan Presidency Council, which marks an important step in the country's democratic transition and path to peace, security and prosperity, according to UN News Center.
"I commend the courage, determination and leadership of the Presidency Council under its President Fayez Serraj in moving forward with the implementation of the Libyan political agreement and the aspiration of the overwhelming majority of the Libyan people,” Kobler said in a statement.
“The international community stands firmly behind them and is ready to provide the required support and assistance,” he added, calling on the Libyan people to extend to the Presidency Council and the Government of National Accord (GNA) their full support and cooperation.
Echoing the 10 March statement of the Libyan political dialogue, the UN envoy urged all public bodies, including official financial institutions, to facilitate an immediate, orderly and peaceful handover of power. He further stressed that all security actors have a responsibility to ensure the safety and security of the Presidency Council and of the GNA, and should refrain from any action that can undermine this crucial phase of Libya's transition.
